Abstract: A method for generating an indoor environment model of a building. The method comprises forming a transmitter location model for defining positions of transmitters in said building using gathered information for establishing transmitter locations. The method further comprises receiving signal strength indicative measurements determined for a number of transmitters using at least one electronic communications device wherein the signal strength indicative measurements are based on a signal which has varying signal propagation characteristics in the indoor environment The signal strength indicative measurements are acquired from a number of known locations in the building, identifying discrepancies of signal transmittance in said indoor environment based on said signal strength indicative measurements in relation to said transmitter location model.

Abstract: A method for estimating accuracy of a position determination based on distance-dependent measurements is disclosed. The method comprises: storing area information in relation to pre-defined geographical areas, wherein the area information for each pre-defined geographical area includes accuracy information relating to accuracy of position determinations based on distance-dependent measurements in the pre-defined geographical area; receiving a request for an accuracy estimate; determining an area affiliation based on received position information in said request, wherein the area affiliation defines at least one applicable geographical area among the pre-defined geographical areas, wherein the position of the receiving unit is located within the at least one applicable geographical area; and determining the accuracy estimate based on the stored area information for the at least one applicable geographical area.
